Alicia Farrell’s Summary

From an early age I was taken captive by the power of stories. The millions of words I have read throughout my lifetime have entertained me, educated me, comforted me and inspired me. Now I am the one who has the power to reach others through my words. Whether it is an article about a local event or a website for a well-known business - there is a story to be told. Long before the pen hits the paper or I open my Word document, I figure out what makes the story unique and powerful. I discover the message that will reach the audience and entertain, educate, comfort or inspire them.

Being a good writer is more than just being able to write flawlessly, it’s about communication that will connect with the reader. Sometimes that is a long, entertaining story, and other times it is to just get to the point quickly and clearly.

Previously I’ve been employed as a personal trainer, sales manager and copywriter for an advertising agency. Those experiences have helped me develop my sense of marketing efforts that will create the proper emotional response in the target audience. While offering freelance copywriting, I’ve had the chance to be a storyteller for businesses in healthcare, real estate, public service, retail, entertainment, insurance and more.

If you have an upcoming project you’d like to discuss, simply contact me via email or phone and we can discuss if my skills are a good fit for your goals.
